Data Recovery for Hospitals and Healthcare

Direct answer

Hospitals, clinics, laboratories and health insurance plans depend on electronic medical records, imaging exams (PACS), management systems (Tasy, MV, Soul MV, Philips Tasy) and patient databases. Production failures can compromise immediate clinical care. HD Doctor serves healthcare with emergency SLA, LGPD + CFM compliance, medical secrecy NDA and absolute priority for critical cases. With 24+ years and 240+ healthcare institutions served.

Critical: healthcare data has dual protection (LGPD as sensitive data + medical secrecy CFM). In hospitals with system unavailable, clinical care continues to depend on records. 24h emergency SLA is the rule, not exception.

How service works for healthcare

Healthcare has triple regulation: LGPD (sensitive data), CFM Resolution 1.821/2007 (electronic medical records) and Law 13.787/2018 (digitization and archiving). HD Doctor serves with medical secrecy NDA, regulation-compliant process, recovery of Tasy/MV/Philips/Soul MV databases, PACS (DICOM) recovery, and emergency SLA for production systems.

Common healthcare scenarios

  • Tasy/MV/Philips/Soul MV system inaccessible in production
  • Medical records database (Oracle, SQL Server) corrupted
  • PACS (DICOM) with lost imaging exams
  • Hospital server attacked by ransomware
  • Untested medical record backup that is corrupted
  • RAID failure on medical imaging storage
  • Failed system migration with old data loss
  • Doctor's notebook with prescriptions and reports lost

What NOT to do in hospitals and healthcare

  1. 1.
    Do not run automatic repair on Tasy/MV/Philips database. Hospital databases have millions of relational records. Wrong repair can corrupt records and create LGPD/CFM non-compliance.
  2. 2.
    Do not pay hospital ransomware ransom. On recent attacks (LockBit, BlackCat), we can sometimes decrypt. Paying may violate sanctions and doesn't guarantee recovery.
  3. 3.
    Do not allow IT access without NDA + medical secrecy. Records access without secrecy documentation is LGPD + CFM violation.
  4. 4.
    Do not migrate system with production database without restore test. Failed hospital migrations cost lives.
  5. 5.
    Do not trust untested backup. In healthcare, untested backup is medical director's administrative responsibility.
  6. 6.
    Do not forget Law 13.787/2018 on digitization. Regulates record digitization and 20-year archiving.

  7. 7

    PACS/DICOM recovery

    For imaging storage, individual DICOM exam extraction with intact metadata.

  8. 8

    Clinical data validation

    Technical team works with hospital IT and administration to validate record integrity.

  9. 9

Turnaround and SLA

ScenarioTurnaround
Critical production systemExpress 24h
Hospital database5–12 business days

Healthcare FAQ

Do you serve hospital with Tasy/MV in critical production?

Yes, with 24h emergency SLA. Dedicated team available for production hospital systems with clinical care impact.

Do you recover PACS / DICOM with imaging exams?

Yes. We recover PACS from Carestream, GE Centricity, Philips IntelliSpace, Sectra and others. Each DICOM exam keeps original metadata (patient, doctor, equipment, date).

Do you know LGPD for healthcare data?

Yes. We operate compliant with LGPD (sensitive data, art. 11), CFM Resolution 1.821/2007 and Law 13.787/2018 (digitization and 20-year archiving).

Hospital attacked by ransomware. What to do?

Do NOT pay before our diagnosis. In some recent variants (LockBit, BlackCat) we decrypt technically. When we can't, we often recover via shadow copies, old backups or pre-encryption.

Do you serve clinical labs and imaging clinics?

Yes. We serve labs with LIS systems (Shift, Concierge, ApolloLab, ChronoLab) and imaging clinics with specific PACS.

How does the quote work?

Diagnosis is free. After technical assessment within 24h (or hours in emergency) we send a detailed quote. We accept corporate invoicing, government purchase orders and continuous SLA contracts.
